My Friend.....Stanley


This is Stanley, he lives at the bottom of my street.

i know that his name is not really Stanley, (mainly because i'm sure there has never been a Slovene named Stanley). There is no plaque to tell me his real name, what he did or why he has a statue at the end of my street in his honour....yet every day as i pass him by i felt like i should be able to said a friendly hello to the only neighbour who i see everyday, in fact the only neighbour who i really know. So i named him Stanley.

I often like to muse over the life of Stanley and what wonderful Adventures he might have had

  3. I like his name. Very friendly. I named my apartment building Maude because it's so old and cranky.
